06x14 - When Time Froze

[bunniefuu]

so that's all right. And he can
carry on as long as he likes.

..two people playing chess.

..a really ugly Viking.

..the interior
of the Orient Express.

That's a Dalek.

Eye-drives!

..the Cave of Skulls...
..inside a pyramid.

..dinosaurs in the sky.
The Doctor is a soothsayer.

..Roman chariot...
..Charles Dickens...

Nothing says "I love you"
more than a machine g*n.

ALEX KINGSTON, ECHOING
'Oh, the wedding and the kiss!'

It was a pretty good kiss, though.

'It's the series finale, and on set,

'the cast are getting patched up
and ready for action.'

This is a really exciting moment,
the emotional and practical climax

of all episodes.

Attention, all personnel.

OVER LOUDSPEAKERS
"Attention, all personnel."

We're in, right now, a pyramid

which is the result of an alliance
between ancient Egypt

and modern America.

Hi, honey. I'm home.

And what sort of time
do you call this?

The death of time.

History has collapsed.
All of history is happening at once.

Amy and Rory are basically deciding
to get married

in a different time zone.
River's being difficult as always,

and Madame Kovarian's about to meet
her brutal death.

'And all of that
using just one eye.'

It's really disconcerting.

You feel slightly dizzy, actually,

when you're just working
with that one eye.

It's very, very odd.

It's kind of weird.
It weirded us all out,

especially when I'm trying to flirt
with Alex Kingston.

It's easy to flirt with two eyes.

Matt managed to flirt perfectly well
with the eye patch,

so that's all right. And he can
carry on as long as he likes.

ALEX LAUGHING
'Flirty or not,

'what they are is essential gear
for Silent spotting.'

Eye-drives, very important things.
Don't forget your eye-drive.

If you do, you'll forget a Silent,
and that's not good.

What they are is external storage
for your memory.

The Silence have human servants.
They all wear these.

Obviously the Silence need that.
They've got human servants.

I work for the Silence.

It's no use, with
a memory-proof creature, to say,
"Could you fetch me a coffee?"

and they wander off
and don't come back.

..former envoy of the Silence.

So just in order for the Silence
to get some decent admin done

back in the office,
they require eye-drives.

, take one.

But they can be controlled
and used as a w*apon,

which none of us know.

And you're wearing eye-drives
based on mine, I think.

Whoops! What do you mean?

Tell me! What?
SHE SCREAMS IN AGONY

Cut. That was excellent. Well done.

And...cut.

So, er, how do you feel about
being in an Egyptian pyramid

on the set of...
It's amazing. I love the Egyptians,

and I love hieroglyphics.
I love their use of sand.

Yeah. OK. I find that really cool.
And Tut and Khamun.

Er, yeah. And, um...
You know, it's...

Yeah, OK.
That's all we've got time for today.

You are great at interviewing.
You are really good.

The questions were hot.
I am impressed.

Emma!

Hey, Emma. Howdy.

How's your...
This is day two on Who.

Day two on Who. It is!

How's that going for you?
Pretty well,

except I die in about two seconds.
Oh, and that's you done?

That's me done. Oh, no.
Kaput. Oh, God.

SHE SCREAMS
She's dead.

Cut. Good.

Rory at that point, Captain
Williams, being a bit of a hero...

I'll wait here, buy you time.
You have to take your eye-drive off.
Can't. I'll forget what's coming.

..decides that he's going to ignore
the fact that he's in pain...

But it could activate any second.
It HAS activated, ma'am.

But I'm of no use to you
if I can't remember.

..and carry on guarding...

You have to go now, ma'am!

Yes. Now! Yes.

Thank you, Captain Williams.

Three, two, one...

Argh! Argh!

'Finding
the perfect Doctor Who monster

'can be a bit of a tall order.'

OK. I'm ' ", so that's
two metres and two centimetres,

and in a way I think it works,

as a character for the Silence,
that they are imposing and big.

# I wish I was a little bit taller

# I wish I was a baller

# I wish I had a girl
who looked good, I would call her

# I wish I had a rabbit in a hat

# With a bat and a six-four Impala

# I wish I was, like, six foot nine

# So I can get with Leoshi

# Cos she don't know me,
but, yo, she's really fine

# You know I see her all the time,
everywhere I go

# And even in my dreams I can
scheme a way to make her mine #

Three, two, one...

'Pretty scary, huh?
But outside in the car park,

'there's something
even more frightening.

'It's Karen Gillan
with a machine g*n.'

Sorry if I'm talking really loudly.
I've got earplugs in.

I came in this morning thinking
I'd be doing small, fake g*ns.

They were, like,
"No, you're going to learn
how to fire a full-on machine g*n."

I was, like, "Oh, my God!"

They're real g*ns, converted
to fire blank for film and TV.

Right. Are you watching?

I see. All right?

So firm grip on there, OK? OK.

You're going to be spraying
these guys, so it's like a...

dagga-dagga-dagga. And fire!

SHE SCREAMS
All right. That's it.

SHE LAUGHS

SHE WHISPERS

It's, like...
SHE GROWLS

That's it.
You're going really aggressive.

SHE ROARS

OK. You're fine. Yay!

Whoo! That felt cool!

Really cool!

, take , A marker.

Amy finally remembers to come back
for the love of her life,

and says she loves him
the only way Amy could -
with a machine g*n.

You know, nothing says "I love you"
more than a machine g*n.

SWELLING ROMANTIC STRING MUSIC

Wah!
SHE LAUGHS

How was that, Karen?
How does that feel?

Yeah. I'm a bit shaky, but, um...

Cos I'm f*ring at people.
Do you know what I mean?

That would freak me out.
I just don't want the guilt!

B marker. Action.

Argh! Come on, you. Up you get.

You all right?

Amy...

Help me!

And the thing that wasn't in
the original script,

which is when Amy kills Kovarian...

You took my baby from me
and hurt her,

and now she's all grown up
and she's fine.

I'll never see my baby again.

But you'll still save me, though -

because HE would.

She's doing something
that the Doctor would never do,

because the Doctor isn't there.

KOVARIAN GASPS

Amy is face-to-face with the fact

that she's completely capable
of that,

and would she have been that girl
if she'd never met the Doctor?

River Song
didn't get it all from you, sweetie.

SHE SCREAMS
We should get a drink sometime. OK.

And married. Fine.

The Doctor's getting married,
would you believe?

SONG: "I Do, I Do, I Do"
by ABBA

Then, you may kiss the bride.
I'll make it a good one.

You better.

# Love me or leave me

# Make your choice, but believe me

# I love you

# I do, I do, I do, I do, I do #

Cut.

THEY LAUGH

Ooh,
I could just kiss you all night!

And I you, Miss Kingston.

Oh, the wedding and the kiss!

Well, I wouldn't say it was
necessarily much of a wedding.

I think, um,
when it comes to getting married,

River may have preferred something
a little more splendid

then just standing
on top of a pyramid.

, take .

'It was a pretty good kiss, though.'

I mean, if that's how robots kiss,
that's how Teselectas kiss,

I'm all for it.
SHE LAUGHS

Cut.
THEY LAUGH

Was it even really a wedding
and was it even really a marriage?

Um, that's the big question.

River, I'm about to whisper
something in your ear,

and you have to remember it
very, very well.

What the Doctor whispers in my ear
at that moment

is the fact that I should look
into his eyes very deeply,

and of course, when I do, I see
the teeny, teeny, tiny real Doctor.

Because actually he's a Teselecta.
He's not the Doctor at all.

Ssh!
He's actually a robot at the time,

albeit one operated
by a version of himself.

and he doesn't give his name,
so does that count?

And yet clearly River, at that stage
in her life, does know his name,

so who knows?

So...yes. Is there more to come?

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT
I would like to introduce you all

to my darling husband...
Thank you.

..Rory Williams - Rory Pond,

and my beautiful daughter,
River Song, Melody Pond.

There's loads of names
flying around. I know.

And I'm Amy.
It's a lovely family set-up.

I think we're all quite happy.
I'm really happy.

I like, um, our relationship now.
Yeah. Yeah.

Because it really feels like
we've joined forces,

and together we are
a force of nature. Pond girls.

And you've never had to change
any dirty diapers.

No, I know. Thank God!
You've skipped the worst part.

You've skipped all that.
That is the weird thing about it,

the fact that
we haven't grown up with you.

We haven't seen you grow up.
Are we back in?

'So, that's the family connection.
River's older than her mum,

'and met the Doctor
before her dad even did. Hmm!

'It's all a bit of a head-scratch,
right?'

I don't find it that complicated.

I've never found River Song's
timeline that complicated.

It just she has the adventures,
roughly, broadly speaking,
in reverse order to the Doctor.

RIVER SPEAKING
'I was born in battle,

'on an asteroid called Demon's Run.

'I was the daughter of Amy Pond
and Rory Williams.

'They named me Melody Pond.'

What you are going to be, Melody,

is very, very brave.

'I was kidnapped'... Two minutes.

..'taken by Kovarian,
a servant of the Silence...

..'to an orphanage on Earth.'

'I was raised
with only one purpose...

'to k*ll the Doctor.'

Help me! Get down!

What are you doing?
Saving your life! No!

SHE FIRES

'I escaped the spacesuit
and lived on the streets...

..'homeless, alone and dying,

'until I regenerated...

..'and became the best friend
of young Amy and Rory'...

Why are you always in trouble?

You're the most in trouble in
the whole school, except for boys.

And you. I count as a boy.

..'growing up with my parents'...

Yes, Rory.

SCHOOL BELL RINGING

..'waiting for the arrival
of the Doctor.'

Out, out, out! Everybody out!
Don't breathe the smoke. Get out!

'And then I regenerated
into a new form.'

SHE SCREAMS
'I was the woman

'who would become River Song'...

SHE GASPS

..'although I didn't know that
at the time.'

Let's see, then.

Oh, it's all going on down there,
isn't it?

Hair! That's River Song.

Who's River Song?

Spoilers. Spoilers?

What spoilers?

Hang on. Down to business!

I was trained and conditioned
for one purpose.

I was born to k*ll the Doctor.

'And I did so with a kiss.'
This is what they were building -

my bespoke psychopath.
I'm all yours, sweetie.

'A kiss poisoned by the Judas tree.'

'But I was shown
who River Song would be,

'and I saw just how much
I would love him.'

'And so I gave all my remaining
lives to restore his...

..because I knew
the Doctor was worth it.'

HE INHALES

River!

No...

What are you doing?

Hello, sweetie.

She will be...amazing.

'And in return,
he left me the most wonderful gift.'

Tell me,

why do you want to study
archaeology?

'I knew that some day
I would find the Doctor.'

Well, to be perfectly honest,
Professor,

I'm looking for a good man.

'But the spacesuit
was waiting for me.'

You never really escaped us,
Melody Pond.

We were always coming for you.
How do you know who I am?

I made you what you are -

the woman who kills the Doctor.

No! No! No!

WHOOSHING g*nshots

'But I just couldn't bring myself
to k*ll him'...

Hello, sweetie.
..'and so all of time collapsed...

..'and only the Doctor
could save the universe.'

I'm about to whisper something
in your ear. You have to remember it

very, very carefully,
and tell no-one what I said.

'Rule one - the Doctor lies.'

Ssh! 'He escaped his own death...

..'a secret I knew I had to keep...

..'even though
it meant imprisonment.'

ALARM BLARES

'But I've always been good
at escaping.'

Oh, turn it off!
I'm breaking in, not out.

This is River Song,
back in her cell.

They've taken Amy...and our baby.

The Doctor's getting some people
together.

We're going after her,
but he needs you too.

'From this point on,
I realised I knew more than him.'

I can't.

Not yet, anyway.

I'm sorry?

This is the day he finds out
who I am.

Oh, look - your cot. Haven't seen
that in a very long while.

Tell me. Tell me who you are!

I am telling you.

'From that moment on, we were living
our lives in the wrong order,

'the Doctor and me.

'And in all our future meetings,

'I would know him more,
but he would know me less.'

Hello.

Hello.

HE LAUGHS

THUNDER RUMBLING / RAIN PATTERING

'Until one day the Doctor would
invite me to watch me k*ll him.'

g*nsh*t

Hello, sweetie.

Right, then. Where are we?
Have we done Easter Island yet?

Um... Yes! I've got Easter Island.

Sorry. What are you two doing?
They're both time travellers,

so they never meet
in the right order.
They're synching their diaries.

'Once again I found myself
at Lake Silencio'...

That's an Apollo astronaut
in the lake. Look!

..'folding back on my own timeline,
this time...

'a witness to the Doctor's sh**ting,
knowing everything,

'but unable to tell
those who cared the most

'that the Doctor would survive.'

How can you be OK with this?
The Doctor's death doesn't
frighten me. Nor does my own.

There's a far worse day coming
for me.

'Back to the orphanage
where I grew up,

'only this time
as witness to my own escape.'

She climbed out of the suit,

like...she forced her way out.
She must be incredibly strong.

Incredibly strong, and running away.
I like her.

'Did I mention
I was kick-ass with a g*n?

'No-one kidnaps ME
and gets away with it.'

So...what kind of doctor are you?

Archaeology.

'And then came his first kiss...

'and my last.'

Right. OK.

Interesting.

What's wrong?

You're acting like we've never done
that before. We haven't.

We haven't? Oh...

..but it was very nice. It was...

It was good. It was, er, unexpected.

You know what they say -
there's a first time for everything.

THUNDER RUMBLING

And a last time.

'But I always knew the Doctor
would be there for me,

'so long as I left him a message.'

Hello, sweetie! You graffiti'd the
oldest cliff face in the universe.
You wouldn't answer your phone!

It's a Pandorica.
More than just a fairy tale.

River!

Who are you?

You're going to find out
very soon now.

And I'm sorry...

..but that's
when everything changes.

BEEPING

'He would always be there
to catch me.

'Even at the crash
of the Byzantium he came.'

'My love couldn't resist it...

..'bringing with him an Amy
who did not know me.'

Amy Pond, Professor River Song.

How early is this for you?
Very early.

So you don't know who I am yet.
How do you know who I am?

I don't always look the same.
I've got pictures of all your faces.

You never show up
in the right order, though.
I need a spotter's guide.

Octavian said you k*lled a man.

Yes. I did.

Who?
SHE CHUCKLES

It's a long story, Doctor.

No sneak previews -

well, except for this one.

You'll see me again quite soon,

when the Pandorica opens.

The Pandorica!

HE LAUGHS

That's a fairy tale.
SHE LAUGHS

Doctor!

I just climbed out of the Byzantium.

You were there.

So young!
Didn't have a clue who I was.

SHE CHUCKLES
You're funny like that.

THEY SQUEAL AND LAUGH

'I'd finally let her know
the wonderful secret -

'that the best man
I'd ever known was alive.'

Hey!

'However delighted they were,

'I knew a far worse day
was waiting for me.'

"Reminder. The library has been
breached. Others are coming."

'My last encounter with the Doctor.'

Hello, sweetie. Get out.

'I always knew that one day
my love wouldn't know me.

'Now I looked into his eyes
and saw that day had come.'

The crash of the Byzantium.
Have we done that yet?

Doctor...

please tell me you know who I am.

Who are you?

You know him, don't you?
Oh, God, do I know that man!

We go way back, that man and me -
just not this far back.

I'm sorry. What?

This is the Doctor
in the days before he knew me.

And he looks at me, and...

..he looks right through me, and
it shouldn't k*ll me, but it does.

'The Doctor was willing to sacrifice
himself to save the library.

'But I had to take his place.'

The last time I saw you - the
real you, the future you, I mean -

you turned up on my doorstep
with a new haircut and a suit.

If you die here,
it'll mean I never met you!

Time can be rewritten!
Not those times.

Not one line! Don't you dare.

It's OK. It's OK!
It's not over for you.

You'll see me again.
You've got all of that to come -

you and me,

time and space.

You watch us run!

River, you know my name.
"Auto destruct in"...

You whispered my name in my ear.

"Nine. Eight. Seven."

There's only one reason
I would ever tell anyone my name.

There's only one time I could.
Hush, now!

"Three." Spoilers.

"Two. One."

Stay with me! You can do it!
Stay with me!

Come on! You and me - one last run!

'But that man -
that impossible man -

'never gives up.'

'The Doctor saved me,
preserving me in a computer,

'and all my glorious memories
of the Doctor live on...

..'because just sometimes,

'everybody lives.'

Morning!

Hello, Confidential. How you doing?

Hello!

What's happening, Confidential?

SONG: "A Message To You Rudy"
by the Specials

Hi, Confidential!

Mwah!

'This imposing interior is normally
the home of Cardiff City Council.

'But as usual, the Doctor Who team
have rocked-up and time-travelled it

'to a whole new era.'

Today we're sh**ting the interior
of Buckingham Senate.

As time's crashed together,
we're in Buckingham Palace,

which is occupied by the
Roman Emperor, Winston Churchill.

It's always two minutes past five!
Day or night,

it's always two minutes past five
in the afternoon!

# Time marches on, never ending #

Action!

'To use a technical term,
timey-wimey has gone wibbly-wobbly.'

There are pterodactyls
attacking children in Hyde Park,

balloons in the sky carrying cars,

steam trains
running round the Gherkin,
and Charles Dickens is back...

So, can you topple
last year's Christmas special?

..talking about
his Christmas special. I love that.

It involves ghosts and the past
and the present and the future,

all at the same time.

Take five.
Crowds lined the Mall today

as the Holy Roman Emperor,
Winston Churchill,

returned to the Senate
on his personal mammoth.

What happened to time?

A woman.

WHOOSHING g*nshots

Time is broken
because a fixed point in time

is momentarily diverted. The fact
that the Doctor dies on that beach

must, must happen,
and River, being River,

just decides not to do it.

Hello, sweetie. What have you done?

Now, the Doctor knows when he can
change history and when he cannot,

because that point
was not divertible,

so there's a huge time expl*si*n.
Everything goes mental.

What happened? Nothing.
Nothing? Nothing happened.

And then it kept happening -
or, if you'd prefer,

everything happened at once,
and it won't ever stop.

Time is dying.

It's going to be :
in the afternoon for all eternity...

..a needle stuck on a record.

A record? Good Lord, man -
have you never heard of downloads?

Said Winston Churchill.

And cut.

I always suspected
that there was unfinished business,

and how right I was.
Winston is back!

I don't know quite
in what area he's back in,

but at least he's back in Doctor
Who, which is what I always wanted.

At the end of the episode we did...

Here! Have a cigar.

..Victory Of The Daleks,
that there was a little frisson

that meant that... The door
was left open, shall we say,

and I'm thoroughly glad
to come through it.

'Earlier this year, Doctor Who
Confidential and BBC Learning

'launched the best competition ever
- the chance for schoolchildren

'to write their very own episode
of Doctor Who.'

I would like you to write a story
about me!

'The winning script
came from Oakley Junior School.

'So, sit back and enjoy the premiere

'of Death Is The Only Answer.'

DOCTOR WHO THEME MUSIC

Oh, I've missed you!
I can't believe River blew you up.

OK - I didn't mean to do that.

I didn't do THAT.
I'm sure I didn't do that!

And, more importantly,
where's my fez?

Doctor? That is you, is it?

Can you explain how my fez got here?

Albert Einstein! Nice to see you!

What are you doing here?

I was working on MY time machine,
then it started shaking.

I put my hand in to turn it off,
went straight through it
and ended up here!

So, how's it going,
your "time machine"?

Oh, not great.
I've singed my eyebrows,

almost d*ed twice,
and fallen off a cliff.

In fact,
I'm quite close to perfecting it.

I think this liquid is the key.

Oh, yes.

But no.

Is it yes or no? No!

HE GASPS
So how did I get here?

You're the original owner
of this fez,

the fez I happened to be carrying
during an unavoidable collision

with this lever.
My lever plus your fez

equals time-window
in the TARDIS - my TARDIS,

so don't get any ideas
trying to steal it again.

You said you were going to give
my toothbrush back.

The Daleks exterminated it
last week. Or was it last century?

So, going back to this - I guess
it's not bionic fusion liquid.

Never mind.
I'll just run some tests on it.

I made it! I'll do the test.

That's the th-century physicist
for you -

always wanting to do it themselves.

Where have you hidden
my bicarbonated processing machine?

A genius like me needs better than
this old trash!

Old trash?! I'll have you know

this old trash will be around
until the end of time.

In fact, it was.

Ah! And, Albert, I almost forgot -
do not drink that liquid.

It may...

Ooh! I like your new look.

It's an Ood, isn't it? You've got
the wiggly bits and everything.

SPOOKY VOICE
Death is the only answer.

Ooh! Can you hear me?
What's your name?

Death is the only answer.
What do you mean? Answer to what?

OK, you don't want to tell me.
But wait, wait -

this is what you're looking for.
Power source for your time machine.

CRACKLING

What just happened? Long story.

You went a bit Ood - er, a bit odd.

Nice hair. You should keep it.
It looks more sciencey.

I don't feel too good.
Will you drop me off home, please?

OK. There we are.

HE GRUNTS

Ah! Sorry about that.

Exactly what year did you come from?

Er, , I think.

TARDIS WHOOSHES

Here we go! .

th of September,
about two o'clock.

Oh, well -
back to the drawing board.

I guess you're keeping the fez,
then.

Well, fezzes look better on me
than you - like bow ties.

Typical Doctor!
Some things will never change.

Oh, well - goodbye. Goodbye, Albert.

TARDIS WHOOSHES

SONG: "Without Me"
by Eminem

'Time for a cameo
from a much-debated foe,

'proving it's in no way ready
to be exterminated.'

# Guess who's back

# Back again

# Shady's back, tell a friend...

I didn't know I was going to write
the Dalek scene

until seconds
before I did write it.

It wasn't in originally.
I'd cut straight to the chess match.

Hello, Dalek.

# Guess who's back

# Back again #

So here's this year's Dalek,
lying on its side.

Hush, now. I need some information
from your data core.

DALEK WHIRRS

Everything the Daleks know
about the Silence.

SONG: "Danger! High Voltage"
by Electric Six

# Fire in the disco

# Fire in the Taco Bell

# Fire in the disco

# Fire in the gates of hell...

'They say
life is like a game of chess.

'But on Doctor Who, it's a bit
of a shock to the system.'

Electrical chess,

that even with a gauntlet on, if
you touch it, you get blown apart.

# Danger, danger...

THEY SHOUT
# High voltage...

What kind of people would watch two
people playing chess to the death?

The key word's got to be decadent,
and twisted,

and weird and out-there.

I really enjoyed doing that scene,
because all the SAs were dressed

in such outrageous costumes.
They looked fantastic -

all the hair and makeup.

Wow!

I'm used to seeing them dressed
in business suits

or as passersby
or as politicians or as marines,

so to see all the men
with wigs and eyeliner on,
it was really good fun.

All right. More than anything,
it's a football match.

Somebody's about to die.
So you have to do a bit of...

Somebody getting k*lled
playing chess.

OK? Yeah. OK!

THEY SHOUT
# Danger, danger

# High voltage

# When we touch and when we kiss #

'For a really electrifying game
of chess,

'you need
a pretty diehard opponent.'

Well, we're about to play chess,
but chess with a twist.

It's got four million volts
running through it.

It could catch on. In fact
there's probably a channel somewhere

where you can watch this now. Yeah.

B marker.

CROWD CHEERING

ELECTRICITY CRACKLES

The crowd are getting restless!
they know the queen's
your only legal move.

It's visually the most boring thing
in the world.

That's why it's never taken off
as a spectator sport.

It's like two grumpy men
who've fallen out in a small cafe,

sitting at a table, not talking.

You've already moved it times,

so there are now over four million
volts running through it.

Except this is Doctor Who chess,
so it's going to be in a pit

with
lots of decadent people cheering

and hoping to see an electrocuted
Viking at a chess table.

Who doesn't want to do that
of an evening?

THEY SHOUT

That's why they call it Live Chess.
ELECTRICITY CRACKLES

It would be the way forward
for chess,

if they want it to be
a spectator sport.

You'll never make it
to bishop four alive.

It was a mad idea. I liked it.
It had a little mini-story to it.

These chess games go on where
you can't move the queen too often.

When else do I get to write this?

, take , A camera.

'The time has come for the Doctor
to share his future intentions

'with Dorium.' Is it you?

The Teselecta.

A doctor in a doctor's suit.
Time said I had to be on that beach,

so I dressed for the occasion.
Barely got singed in that boat.

You're going to let them all think
you're dead? It's the only way,

then they can all forget me.
I got too big, Dorium. Too noisy.

Time to step back into the shadows.

OK, and cut there. One more, please.

'To create the scene
for this big revelation,

'the set had to be
a real head-turner.'

Steven had written, "The Doctor
enters an Indiana Jones tunnel."

Now, there are no Indiana Jones
tunnels in Cardiff,

so we had to build one.

'So the props department
get ahead of the game,

'and tunnel
through timber and plywood

'to build the Chamber of Skulls...
and skulls,

'and skulls, and more skulls.'

Oh, it's wonderful! Very macabre.

The trickiest thing
was getting enough skulls.

Those were going to take the time
to make and paint,

so we made sure we started looking
into skulls at an early date.

I kept saying,
"Not just a few. We want a lot,

and more and more and more!"

And I have to say they looked
really rather weird and wonderful.

THEY CHATTER

'Friday, th of April ...

'the day of another notable wedding,
and some of the crew

are using their tea break
to mark the occasion.'

'But it's also
the last day of sh**ting

'for this series of Doctor Who.'

Aha!

Hello!

'Tea break over,
there's work to be done.'

Put the board on.

Action.

We're about to arrive.
Eye-drives need to be activated
as soon as we disembark. Good point.

Thank you, Captain Williams. Hello.

Hello, sir. Pleased to meet you.

Captain Williams, best of the best.
Couldn't live without him.

THE DOCTOR LAUGHS

That is Matt,
Karen and Arthur wrapped.

'And with that, it's all over.'

THEY APPLAUD

Yeah, it's a very strange...
It's a very strange feeling.

It's been absolutely amazing.

I hope you've enjoyed watching it
as much as we've enjoyed making it.

It's been quite a journey, actually!

It's like a roller coaster.
Sometimes you're so tired

you can't hold your head up, and
sometimes you're really hyperactive,

and we experienced that a lot.

But this episode in particular's
been really fun.

Yeah. It's been...
It's been amazing.

Hey, episode - that is a wrap!

# And now

# The end is near...

You have to go now, ma'am!

# And so we face

# The final curtain

# My friend

# I'll say it clear

# I'll state my case...
Thank you, Captain Williams.

# Of which I'm certain...

Argh!

# I've lived a life that's full

# I've travelled
each and every highway...

Happy New Year!

SHE LAUGHS
# And more

# Much more than this

# I did it my way...
SHE LAUGHS

# Regrets...

This isn't nearly
as bad as it looks.

# I've had a few...

I'll just be off, then.
# But then again...

SHE GASPS

# Too few to mention...

Don't worry. I put everything back
the way I found it.

# I did what I had to do...

Yo-ho-ho!

# And saw it through...

Come on, then, Sexy.
# Without exemption...

Time to get cracking, Doctor!

Surprise!

# I've planned each charted course

# Each careful step...

Take off your clothes.

# Along the byway

# But more...
Argh!

# Much more than this

# I did it...
THEY SCREAM

# My way...

Ha-hah!

# Yes, there were times

# I'm sure you knew

# When I bit off

# More than I could chew...

Gottle o'geer!
# But through it all

# When there was doubt...

Agh!
# I ate it up

# And spit it out

# I faced it all

# And I stood tall

# And did it my way #
